In 2023, compared to other LHP:
Their slider has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical and has essentially average velo. Their cutter results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sink. Their change has slight cut action, is slightly firmer than usual and has some natural sink to it. Their sinker has surprisingly little armside run, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action.
